Su Manyu glanced at the cup Ning Shu was holding, then covered her nose with an expression of disdain. “What is that? It smells.”
“It’s a folk remedy from my village. It’s really effective,” said Ning Shu. However, if Su Manyu didn’t want to drink it, she wouldn’t force her.
Su Manyu accepted the cup, probably because she really wasn’t feeling well. As she drank it, her entire face contorted. “So disgusting.”
Su Manyu smacked her lips. The lingering taste felt even more strange. She picked up her bag, and perhaps because Ning Shu had offered her the medicine, her attitude towards Ning Shu got a little better and she said, “I’m leaving. I won’t be staying in the dorm tonight.”
“I don’t want to see a certain person,” said Su Manyu coldly.
Lin Qianqian’s facial color was very poor and her eyes filled with rage. She lifted one crutch and pointed at Su Manyu as she shouted, “I don’t want to stay in the dorm either with someone that keeps accusing me of being a murderer!”
This was about to develop into a cat fight again!
Ning Shu hastily said, “Don’t the school rules specify that you have to stay in the dorms? And even if there really is a ghost, if we split up, it’ll be able to come after us separately. It’s better for us to stay together.”
Lin Qianqian and Su Manyu didn’t speak, but neither of them moved to leave anymore.
Ning Shu asked Lin Qianqian, “Do you want to have some of this medicine?”
Lin Qianqian shook her head. “I’m good. I’m taking anti-inflammatory medicine right now.”
“Zhuang Yutong, pour me another cup,” said Su Manyu. “I feel much better after drinking it. I’ll pay you for it later.”
Ning Shu curled her lips slightly in disdain as she poured Su Manyu another cup. “Have as much as you like, no need to worry about the money.”
Su Manyu lifted the cup and took a deep breath, then downed it in one go.
The atmosphere in the dorm was very poor, but Ning Shu paid no attention to them and started organizing her clothes and bed.
She glanced at Zhang Yuyan’s now empty bunk. It really felt strange that a person who had been so alive just a while ago was now gone.
She then started examining the soul pearl. How was she supposed to use this to absorb that malevolent ghost?
“Zhuang Yutong, do you want to wash up and head to bed?” asked Su Manyu. Ning Shu was surprised. The restroom was right there, why was she calling her?
Su Manyu lifted her chin slightly. “Let’s go together to wash up.”
